Schnitzel & Things Should Add Polenta to Their Permanent Menu

Last Friday’s weather was horrible, but I did discover 2 very important things. 1) I have holes in the bottom of my shoes and 2) the polenta with caramelized onions from the Schnitzel & Things shop (on 3rd Ave. btw. 45+4t6) is a good cure for a stormy day. We were used to the rare but occasional special from the truck (remember that chicken stroganoff last year?) but now that they have more kitchen space to play with at the shop you’ll see them tweet special items far more often.

So when they tweeted on Friday that the special for the day was polenta, I had to check it out- even if the sky was dumping tons of water.

For $9.95 I got the pork schnitzel with the beets and feta salad and the delicious polenta, which they really need to add to the permanent menu. It was seasoned well and the caramelized onions gave it that extra flavor (though I kind of wanted just a little bit more onions). The texture was nice, smooth and creamy, and most importantly it was good comfort food. I’m wondering what other special menu items they’ll be cooking up next?
